Scientific paper

The Field Integration and Design Operations (FIDO) prototype Mars rover was deployed in May 2000 in the Black Rock Summit area of Nevada and in the Arroyo Seco, JPL, in September 2000 in "blind" science operation tests to evaluate the most efficient ways of: (a) traversing across diverse terrains while conducting reconnaissance-level field science that allows site characterization, and (b) finding, approaching, and placing analytical instruments and a drilling system onto rock targets in ways that characterize in detail and sample materials that are representative of the sites traversed.
